If you have the chance to bring back Beck, particularly if it involves the savage dismembering (or at least the cessation of broadcasting) of Rob Black or whatever his name is, You would be doing your listeners, and the world at large, a great favor.
If you could add him at the 12n hour it would be the best thing you have ever done since you signed Armstrong and Getty. I have told everyone I know about the A and G show and I would do the some for Glenn.
I love his show, and I listen to him everyday online.
A long time Listener...
Also, bring back Jerry Doyle.
Savage is good, too, but I do not like he talks badly about other talk show hosts (like Beck, who he calls "Hemo".
I was heartbroken when you took him off your station 3 years ago!! I have to find him on 860. I have been a Glenn Beck affecionado for a long time. I really would love to have Schnitt gone-he is horrible! He's a schmuck and I can't listen to him, I've tried-but just can't warm up to him.
You have a chance to make KNEW awesome-SO GO FOR IT!! THUMBS UP ALL THE WAY!!
VIVA LA GLENN BECK !!
P.S.Don't mess with Savage!!
I am a regular listener to your station, paying particular attention to the Savage nation.
Adding Glenn Beck to your regular schedule would be a great addition to an already great lineup.
Please bring Beck to KNEW.
Thank you.
Going to all sports makes them even weaker. How about Doyle?
Either one
Just for the love of all that is holy get rid of Rob Black. I listened to him oozing over Janeane Garofalo and it made me sick. If I wanted some psycho communist feminist's opinion, I would listen to NPR.
Schnitt is great.
I also love fish tacos
Used to be an all 560 listener, now only there for Rush. KTRB is a gold mine of good stuff, Beck, Doyle, Laura(record on XM receiver for night listening) etc.
If you don't put Glenn on real time at 6am, will listen to him on my XM, not a big A&G fan. Do like Schnitt.
Tough decisions for you folks. Go back to when Kasem was on 910 when it was KEWB in the 60's.
Thanks, Tom Baker in Mt View

Put on Quinn and Rose from wpgb too, so I won't have to switch streams to get all five: Q&R, Beck, Savage, Hedgecock and Humphreys. Keep up the good work!
Yah, It's the Glen Beck program...nothing rhymes with program....
I like Glenn Beck, but I do not listen to show on a regular basis. I think he would be a good addition!
LIke another poster, I am also missing Rusty Humphries!
I do not DISLIKE Rob Black. My impression of the show is that it is geared towards people who are questioning their stock portfolio/financial planning. That is my least favorite KNEW show on the weekdays.
Could we lose the "talking points memo" spots, too? What a crock!
Otherwise, love the programming! Listening everyday, much to the dismay of some Liberal ears in the workplace! God bless America!
Steve Walker, JARWE
(just another right wing extremist)
Dont move Savage.
Bring back Jerry Doyle.
Lose Schnitt, and Black
Thank you, Carolyn and Gary Hill
it was a big error on KNEW's part to have dropped his program when it used to be
the lead in for Michael Savage. Glenn Beck's show is more entertaining than
many of the talkers you've had on in the last two years.
if possible investigate look into adding Boortz.
I like Dr. Michael Savage too,i personally think the reason Dr Savage doesn't like Beck is because great minds think alike. And when I hear Dr. Savage making comments that Beck is robbing is thunder it sounds to me that there is some resentment on Dr. Savages part. That can easily be take for some kind of jealousey it doesn't suit Dr. Savage well . I also like Handle on the law on Saturaday I liked him in the afternoon.
Bring him on!
I promise you, every KNEW listener turns to 560 or 1050 the minute that program airs.
Would much rather hear Glenn over Todd Schnitt.
so.....YES!!!
start him up
Cheryl Johnson, loyal listener
My favorite host on your station is Roger Hedgecock. I think that if he were on during the day, he would be second in the national ratings to Rush. (He used to be the favorite fill-in host for Rush.) I would like to hear him during the day because I hardly ever get to listen to him at night. If you moved Roger to the noon to 3pm slot and got rid of the Schmit guy, I would be very happy.
This is a no brainer, bring Beck to 910 KNEW!
His conservative comedy is hilarious.
Regarding Michael Savage. I am growing tired of his self-interest... He is just too far out there!
Have been enjoying Schnit.
If you let go of anyone, lose the finance guy... that's not the main issue of the day anymore.
So ideally, keep A & G, add Glenn back, and maybe bring back Dennis Miller
I think he would be a great asset to your line up.
He is a national treasure and one of the few who speaks truth. Please do it soon.
Thanks.
HJ.
I'd stay away from the 9-noon time slot where Rush dominates.
Glenn Beck
Jerry Doyle
I would have to think you broaden out from the hardcore savage element
I do not like Schmitt. I can't get past his voice to even listen to what he says. His voice is so
complaining, whining, and irritating that I turn the radio off or to another channel when he comes on. I started listening to KGO when he comes on.
I also liked Jerry Doyle and loved Dennis Miller.....
Both the 10-2 slot and the 12-3 could be improved....
Armstrong/Getty are my Favorites!!!
Jeff
I listen to 560 most of the day now. How about Tammy Bruce? She's incredible. Glenn was great. What happened to Rusty? Jerry Doyle was funny too. Forget Lou Dobbs.
I'm a loyal conservative listener and think that Armstrong and Getty are just great. I would strongly suggest adding Michael Medved in the afternoon 12:00 to 3:00pm.
Beck, would be an improvement over Shnidt or whatever his name is....
Glenn Beck is not the answer. You already have the nation's leading whack-job in the deliciously ridiculous Dr. Savage. How about some intelligent mid-day programming like you used to have instead?
~Nadine
Glenn Beck's show is easily the best conservative talk show on the radio, IMHO. I stream him EVERY day at work, but I'd love to be able to listen to him on local radio!
But at least we all seem to agree that KNEW currently sucks between A&G and Savage.
Beck before Savage would be fantastic.
I don't know why you ever let him leave.
I would never turn the station if Glenn was back!
I also really enjoy Dennis Miller
I immediately tune to another station when Michael Savage and his ilk are on. I just don't want to deal with his "anger" and hype.
Why not Beck after A & G to replace that arrogant schmuck Rob Black, then Boortz from noon until Savage? I'm sure your listeners will warm up to Boortz as I did, and he's a natural fit for your audience.
BRING HIM BACK !!!
Definitely keep Savage and Armstrong & Getty.
Please show Rob Black the door and have Schnitt follow right behind him.

The only thing that would be better than Glenn is if you brought back JEFF KATZ!!!!...work on it.
BTW...thanks for asking.
Kid with a dream was stimulating but Sal, Sal was the death of him. I couldn’t pay attention to the radio for that involuntary throat clearing thing you get as you hear someone else talk with phlegm filling their vocal cords talking or laughing. Schnit I don’t know, jury is out since I am so frustrated with all the lame guys from before. Savage was the one who kept me tuning in on the drive home.
I am so glad to have the opportunity to express this to you I have wanted to since Beck was taken out of your line up, it probably had something to do with his group doing the TV show. Anyway I would love to have him back and hope that will be the decision.
Thanks for asking!!
PLEASE carry Glenn Beck -- he a coming voice of conservatism and independence. I would listen every day!
Thanks! -- Wayne H Dunlap, P O Box 1609, Forestville, CA 95436
Thank you KNEW
D.D.S.
I believe this guy is phony.
Phony in the same way that Bill O'Rielly is phony.
Phony in the way Arnold-TheStrudel-Man is a republican RINO.
If you believe that you can tell what a person is saying by "hearing" their voice similar to looking into a persons eyes then you will know what I mean.
Maybe I am wrong but I do not thing so.
KNEW and we the listeners would be much better off giving somebody else or perhaps a group of people (format) and shot.
That's my opinion.
Thank You.
Thomas Paine...
I agree with some of the other folks regarding;
Jerry Doyle
Dennis Miller
How about Barbara Simpson?
How about a panel discussion format?
M. Malken
B. Simpson
a Left Winger (like they do to the right on Politically Incorrect -Bill Maher
A moderate.
Do not bring a phoney in, that will not work.
You will burn KNEW brand if it is
I currently listen to him on line as that is the only way I can hear him.
Armstrong and Getty are great, and MIchael Savage is the best. Throw Glenn in between and that would be perfect!
Thank you,
Loved his show when you used to have him on.
And KEEP SAVAGE, TOO!!!!!!
The only station I listen to is 910 KNEW.....because 910 knows what the people want and they bring it to them....
Thanks for listening...
If you can do both- I'll listen right through Savage.
Bloody estatic!
Thanks
Jim in Castro Valley
Love Dr Savage, keep him in the time slot where he is now.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Glenn is a refreshing voice in this crazy political correctness crap.
Cam
I used to listen to Glenn on another station and missed him when he left.
He is intelligent, entertaining and insightful.
Get him now! Please!
(1) Michael Savage
(2) Michael Savage
(3) Glenn Beck.
Yes, I would enjoy Beck.
Though, strangely, his TV show is much better than his Radio show.
I wonder, why is that ?
Chrisi Armes
You used to have him on at 9 am 1 or 2 years ago, then took him off, my guess to loose listeners who knows, maybe the ratings were too high. But really, by all means put Glenn Beck on KNEW live!
Very entertaining, fair, and informative.
And while you are at it, you should also pick up Neal Boortz, for the second time.
I guess so
he would go up a few points in my book if he'd back Savage with getting him off the ban list in Britain. Rusty Humphrey is the only one in radio who's done so, good on him.
hedgecock is good too, but Savage is the man
Getty.
I listen to 910 for A&G and beck would just be another GOOD reason to listen more.
I have no clue why Rob Black was ever put on, that's not the type of program I'd expect on KNEW.
Bring Glenn back !!!
Thanks
Michael Savage is my favorite NEVER take him off the air!!!!!!!!! He is the greatest thing that has ever happened to this country.We need to support him all the way!!!!
guy.Keep savage
the best line up you could have is
armstrong and getty 6- 10
niel bortz 10- 12
glenn beck 12 - 3
savage 3- 6
jerry dohle 6 - on
I drill water wells and listen to talk radio all day from 6 am- 6pm this line up would give you a large draw all day and keep the people listening longer and help your listening share and advertising sales
hope you guys do something the last few years have been hard to listen with lou dobbs, or bill o rielly blabbing on dennis miller was ok but not really good but anything !!!! i mean anything is better than ron black and schnit
thanks
hank hardister
napa ca.
Alternatively, bring back DENNIS MILLER!
Thank you
Also bring back Dennis Miller.
Get rid of the 10A.M. to Noon Slot
Get rid of Doug Stephen
off in the first place. He should have his
old time back. there's enough money
talk already. thank you, great radio
station I listen 12 hrs a day while
driving doing deliveries and at home.
All my family do also
change. Snits is cool and the king Savage, no way. Maybe his repeat last hour but you lose
any of these youll lose me.
Sandra Brown
By contrast, Michael Savage, with whom I disagree on many topics, is an articulate, intelligent man with certainly a colorful background that makes oftentimes for entertaining radio.
Beck is an unadulterated boring moron which your station could well do without!!!!!
Who cares about sports right now, our country is in a crisis and it is more important than baseball, basketball and football.
You got my vote!!!!!
I like him very much, good choice.
Thank you,
Bert Peinbauer

Listener since 2001, when I moved to the Bay Area.
I almost never listen in the 10 am until 3pm slots. I don't really like Bill O'reilly's show, although I did enjo Jeff Katz's show. Anyway thats my 2 cents worth.
Glenn is the best and most Common Sense person in the radio and TV today.
Please bring back to your station Neal Bortz as well!!
If you don't get Glenn Beck it would be a bad business decision. He is entertaining. He is knowledgable.
black from 1 to 3
guess its time to reset all the radios at home to 910.
Yeah, what happened to Doyle? I listened to his show regularly and was disapointed when his show was cancelled. Bring him back too.
Trade in that guy with the "financial" info show who took over Dennis Miller's morning slot.
And keep Michael Savage and the Schnitt Show in their current slots.
Thank you for asking us.
thanks
in as free Americans. Oh yea he has NEVER said "For those of you in Rio Linda"
and Lee Rodgers in Favor of Armstrong & Getty.
Perhaps you could put Glenn on in the early afternoon instead of Shnit (sp.)
you have tried him before and it didn't work. Beck gets tiring to listen to. He is more mid-west/east coast audience.He has become more like O'riley and a whiner. Steal Mark Levine from KSFO, or get Ken Hamblin. Beck is different now since you had him. Keep SAVAGE. Katz was good also. Denis Miller & O'Riley sucked.
I can't believe that "other" station switched formats and took him off the air. This is a great opportunity for KNEW.
His cause and influence has grown substantially over the past few months. This show is more important now than at any other time in recent memory.
ps: give Rusty his hour back.
He seduced me away from your station in the morning...as much as I LOVE Armstrong and Getty. If I could listen to them both on the same station I'd be thrilled!
Bring back the duct tape!!!!
(btw, not hatin dr. savage BUT not liking him either.)
Glenn vs...the other Bay Area talk radio...guys..
Glenn vs. Lee Rodgers= Glenn
Glenn vs. Rush Limbaugh...probably Rush
Glenn vs. Sean Hannity..probably Glenn
Glenn vs. Mark Levin=Glenn
~thanks
Boortz is better.
JERRY DOYLE is best. Get JERRY DOYLE, please.
Keep A&G!!!
[Schnitt is dull, dull, dull]
Glenn is the only one I know of in the media that offers 'common sense' answers to difficult political issues. He should be on your talk radio.
Glen Beck is as entertaining as a prostate exam. He seriously discredits the (I hate to use the term because it is so vague) "conservative movement" because he is so ill informed and emotion driven. The only person worse than him is Hannity. Beck is a drama queen (does he ever stop fidgeting and squirming on his FOX show?!) and his smirk reminds me of a creepy neighbor I had as a kid.
More importantly his ideology, which I agree with for the most part is devoid of any intellectual basis, which I think (not that my opinion matters since KNEW is going to put Beck on the air) is the most important foundation for conservative pundits to stay relevant and successfully repel liberal arguments. Rush and Dr. Savage are both good examples of conservative intellectuals, granted that they use humor and raw emotion as well, but at least they have a reasoning behind their arguments that make you think about their comments, even if you disagree. Beck has no such grounding to his political views, I would argue him akin to the Chris Matthews or Rachel Maddow of the right: full of polemic without any substance or actual cogent thought. Like Hannity, with Beck, all one needs to do to enjoy his show is turn off your brain.
KNEW: Since you are going to put Beck on your station I beg one thing of you: Please replace A&G and/or Savage with Beck, preferably both, so that I have less of a reason to shift the dial to 910 anymore. Come on KNEW...Schnitt? That money guy no one listens to? Getting rid of Dennis Miller? I think you've been making serious mistakes in your decisions on what shows to run. I liked 910 KNEW a ton when Savage switched over and you branded yourself as an independent conservative station. That was a breath of fresh air from the morning show with the crypt keeper and melanie morgan over on 560 and some of their other dull programming. Now I see you falling into the same hole (aside from A&G who are fantastic and Dr. Savage who is just the most entertaining and thought provoking radio personality in my memory).
Adding Beck will do nothing good for KNEW, except maybe garner ratings from his fans. But I guess your station cares more about the bottom line than intelligent political discourse and the success of conservatism.
I really like to listen to Glenn Beck and Michael Savage on your station. I am in Denver.
Thx, Gary
By the way, whoever that guy is that's on just after A&G MUST GO-he's despicable!
I used to like Beck, but gradually he became too emotional and over the top with his sarcasm, and smacks of Limbaugh to me -- I appreciate the stories/topics he covers, but his style over time got in the way of the substance of the topics at hand. I think this shift happened when he got his TV show.
My opinion is that his style would turn newer listeners would be turned off too quickly, as he takes some getting used to. However, I understand why so many people like listening to the guy.
Guys like A&G, for example, have a great balance of humor and handle it well, and when they are serious and matter-of-fact on issues/topics they are even-keeled which adds to their credibility.
I appreciate having a local guy, Rob Black in that spot, discussing practical topics. In this current economic storm, consumer advocate guys like Clark Howard would draw a VARIETY of listeners, not just conservatives, by delivering information applicable to the individual. You already have a great line up already with Hedgecock, Larson, A&G, and Savage that discuss larger national issues. (ROGER IS GREAT recent addition - he should be a KNEW Keeper!!)
My suggestion to consider for a time slot in your schedule, even just to test it out on the weekends, is consumer advocate Tom Martino "The Referralist" http://www.referrallist.com/aboutus.php I had heard him on the radio when I was traveling through Colorado, when he was known as "The Troubleshooter" and it was informative, practical, and entertaining. I know a lot of people also appreciate and have been helped by listening to Dave Ramsey, although he's not necessarily my favorite.
Perhaps there are some other regional hosts who cover state & local issues -- as it's been said (and it's TRUE) -- all politics are local.
Unfortunately, most people only pay attention to important issues when their wallets are directly impacted, and when that happens they tune out all the noise so they can listen to "news they can use" as the saying goes.
That being said, I think people across the political spectrum would agree that many are seeking out advice and help when it comes to their own personal economy -- because the government sure isn't doing a good job with OUR economy!
If you do decide to bring Beck back, try putting him in Roger's slot and bump Roger into an even better time slot during the day. That I could handle. But please, reconsider Beck coming back to KNEW. Otherwise this listener will change her dial to KSTE Sacremento.
Thanks for giving us listeners a voice.
I'm a fan, he's amongst my top 5 talk shows I really enjoy listening to.
Also, I miss Laura Ingram. I catch her on the web sometimes, but I liked listening to her on my commute home. Consider fitting her into your schedule too. (Why is anyone listening to 560?????)
A little dose of Glenn Beck goes a long way!
Cannot take him for long.
Beck is no Levin.
Beck is no Savage.
Beck is no Hedgecock.
NO on Beck.
Get him now.
during drive time or lunch break time please!
(I also enjoy the Jerry Doyle show, but they only air 1 hour of it on another bay area station, at 3 during Savage's slot, and even that that's when they aren't airing an Oakland A's Game.)
Switching to Rush and Hannity is my last resort, but frankly, they both bore the piss outta me.
It's the humble opinion of a KNEW listener since Jan 2003.
Is that really even a question?! Since week 2 of Rob Black, I have been tuning out KNEW just after A&G and listening to him online. So yes, it would be great!
Thanks.
Dennis
Glenn backs-up what he has to say with detailed information.
Bring Glen back.
How about brinning Hugh Hewitt and Dennis Prager on board.
